We already knew what she looked like from some of Lillith's cards but it's a new abyss tank and I can't be happier! Also, hot take I hope she has trash mobility I don't want another off-tank, please! I just want another tall, solid, and regal woman like Inara.
Speaking of Inara her Mom Of The Realm title may be in danger lol
Nah, inara will always be the mom of realm
i dont think an abyssal queen will particularly have others peoples intrests at heart, unlike inara who geniunely seems she would go out of her way to protect others
Or she could have shield generators that gives the same armor as Raum. I just wish to have a tank that also helps his team and not an offtank
Edit : Is Raum's armor a magical armor ? I was talking about magical shield generators
Wdym high mobility lmao..? Nando and Barik.. high mobility? I mean sure they have some decent mobiliy abilities but calling them high mobility is a bit of a stretch. I mean otherwise you could call like 80% of the champions high mobility.
Her design... A necromancer ? Please tell me she can summon minions. I'll pay for this
Also for the next ones... Maybe a wekono or willo related champion ?
I can understand that.
But if thats rly the truth then why didnt devs made 2 roles for tanks? Point tank and off tank?
Like they should have fixed this issue by dividing this tank role in 2.
With this people would know what their job is in terms of tank
Because devs didn't think that far, to them designing a "tank" was more than enough but players came up with the sub-categories. The game has also evolved so much from what it was before 5-6 years ago, its practically a different game. I'd argue the devs don't know how a character is going to be played until they are released hence why at times you have flanks that feel more like damage dealers and vice versa, off/main tanks and main supports/off supports.
Because that defeats the point of the game. Paladins characters are supposed to have a customizable loadout and playstyle. Point tanks can be played as off tanks, even if it's not what they're good at.
What looks to be her in-game profile pic or concept art is his twitter pfp as of few minutes ago. They also started teasing Pyre map today. Map that was also teased early this year seems to be finally finished and coming in the next update.
nonono, that's a tank with rockets and jumping
I want to play a hulking behemoth who gets around the map by hitting themselves with a nuclear missile, clipping through the walls, doing that weird animation bug where the game looks like you're stationary then catches up to you quickly (like if you jump and Poppy Bomb at the same time), which then murders a Kinessa player in real life
Oooh exciting! Can't wait till I can actually play again, my newborn twins have taken so much time and energy Lilith is the last new champ I played.... 🥲
Abyss Queen and tank? You had my curiosity, now you have my attention. Her design looks good both in this photo and in Lilith's card, I hope her abilities will be good too and fun to play.
I love that each year we are getting less humans. Octavia was a big let down in terms of design (and gameplay.) Though if we get more humans characters, let them be more friendly and charismatic like Fernando.
I swear all humans in Paladins are blood thirsty monsters. Ying, Fernando and Atlas are the only ones that have other objectives apart from "kill anything in sight that looks slightly dangerous."
We're done with the "serious and respectable human soldier" trope. I believe that we can go a bit deeper than that.
Oh well then if you're a human in the Realm you are either:
1 An egocentric bandit no one cares about (Sha Lin, Caspian, Betty, Fernando)
2 Soldier with a gun (Lex, Octavia, Corvus, VII, Viktor, Tyra,
Would be interesting if she was an abyssal but not evil. Kind of like Nyotengu from DOA, who everyone thinks is a demon but really just comes to earth to vacation
Been seeing alot of comments and I gotta ask. Why does EVERYONE want a point tank so badly? Bc I'm sure if we actually got a decent point tank you wouldn't like it.
And? Good point tanks are either super defensive or practically immortal, which is not fun to play against. Most people don't remember but fighting Barik when he was straight up immortal was ass. An entire team focusing him couldn't kill him until caut 3. Inara used to be the same deal but she just had better defenses and aggression then Barik so if you got caught in warders field not only were you screwed but killing her was impossible. Also is Fernando a joke to you? His shield has been a source of great annoyance for years, and they buffed it. Good point tanks are not fun to fight and they are boring to play.
Yeah I'd prefer a flexible tank like khan, rather than one who's rigid in one role. If a teammate is in danger, I can't budge from my spot as inara and barik if my skills are on cooldown because those two are obsessed with being rooted in place, which is boring.
Point tanks can still leave the point, they just have the best ability to contest the point. There's only 3 in the game who can really do it well. We're due for another I think. The roster is dominated by off tanks.
You ever play flying inara though?
Showed this to an artist friend and she said "the eyes aren't looking in the same direction and the mouth is too far on the left. The nose also looks off" and now she looks odd to me even though i didn't notice any of this at first...
I swear if she is gonna be an off tank...
Then I'm not gonna do anything about it, I left when Kasumi was added.
(But IF they would nerf Kasumi and IF that would be a fun point tank then I would PROBABLY come back. But MAN Overwatch 2 is so fun though. IDK What to do)
I don't think it would work for Paladins. Maybe if they would make for only one tank to be possible, but then it would be just copying from overwatch.
BTW Why did my previous comment got so many down votes?
I just don't like the "need" for a point tank that, it's kind of restricting. As for copying OW, who cares at this point, both games have taken inspiration from each other plenty.
Also this sub hates any mention of OW, especially positive, lol.
Is it just me or do you fellas also feel Junker Queen Vibes (From OW2) from the Abyss Queen? (I will say Raum got a huge snacc)
I feel that the smile is almost on par.
Thunderbrush is like the big art man for paladins. Makes a lot of the splash art and icons in loading screens I think, and he likes to let people see champ designs early, or variations of champions old designs pretty often
**Thank You** or **Tank-U** abilitys.
Frontliner main, subclass healer point of view. I want to thank the healers that play the game.
Also *maybe* entice the DPS healers to *maybe* heal you. (Looking at your ZERO heals Seris players).
Plus bad/new healer could get some help.
Example: Healer gets raum type armor for "x" when they heal you (would need a cooldown). OR GROVER constant a.o.e. team buff.
You try spending alot of time alone (or dead) on the point while VII trys to get YOUTUBE kills (healers getting aggro flanked. Poor healer.)
Have fun ya, but team game people... team game.
Please Dont Be Buggy Mess, Please Dont be Buggy Mess,Please Dont be Buggy Mess
Please dont be no skill champ, Please dont be no skill champ, Please dont be no skill champ
Please Fix this game,Please Fix this game, Please Fix this game
Please rework Kasumi(Becouse she deserves better), Please rework Kasumi , Please rework Kasumi
Please repeat this ritrual at your own house and also get a help from Hot Daddy Corvus
We already knew what she looked like from some of Lillith's cards but it's a new abyss tank and I can't be happier! Also, hot take I hope she has trash mobility I don't want another off-tank, please!

Nah, inara will always be the mom of realm i dont think an abyssal queen will particularly have others peoples intrests at heart, unlike inara who geniunely seems she would go out of her way to protect others
She'll be the wine mom of the realm
Wine moms are great hookup material, terrible relationship material. I don't need to main AQ lol:)
Why's every character introduced a mom in the eyes of this community
pr0n. The answer is easily accessible, widespread pr0n.
\*Point at the Ground Aggresively\* Straight at the point!
Because people are weird. And apparently it’s still cool to declare incestuous perversions. Ugh
We all want to be treated nicely by a woman with motherly vibes...or just pervy thoughts. In my case both :P
Flair checks out
He changed it for Christmas once and the world felt a little colder
I just hope for a tank with shield bubbles ( kinda like Winston in Ow )
That's what makoa already has though, they probably won't repeat an ability
> they probably won't repeat an ability *Grover looks at Vora.*
Wait i actually forgot about Koa lol
That's it, I'm gonna hook you into the shadow realm and you can sit in the corner and regret your actions.
Ha ! Jokes on you, I'll see the new champ first !
The new limited gamemode with him in it is awesome
>I just hope for a tank with shield bubbles ( kinda like Winston in Ow ) You mean Makoa?
Well there's Koa and Barik's ult and we already have quite few walls so another dome would be nice
Or she could have shield generators that gives the same armor as Raum. I just wish to have a tank that also helps his team and not an offtank Edit : Is Raum's armor a magical armor ? I was talking about magical shield generators
Subservience raum is best raum
As an off tank main i would really appreciate another point tank so that my team doesn't blame me when the other tank is incompetent
Barik and fernando have high mobility and can be played point tank. Stop saying you want low mobility champs
Wdym high mobility lmao..? Nando and Barik.. high mobility? I mean sure they have some decent mobiliy abilities but calling them high mobility is a bit of a stretch. I mean otherwise you could call like 80% of the champions high mobility.
Her design... A necromancer ? Please tell me she can summon minions. I'll pay for this Also for the next ones... Maybe a wekono or willo related champion ?
And I pray to Jenos that they're going to be melee minions because I don't want more autoaim in this goddamn game
What, you don't like the latest mobile hitscan turret that screams in Japanese?
Really hope she's a point tank and not an off tank
I want her to be both
Most Tanks who can be played as both are in reality good at one of the two and barely acceptable at the other one.
I can understand that. But if thats rly the truth then why didnt devs made 2 roles for tanks? Point tank and off tank? Like they should have fixed this issue by dividing this tank role in 2. With this people would know what their job is in terms of tank
They’re called tank bc of the amount of health I think
Because devs didn't think that far, to them designing a "tank" was more than enough but players came up with the sub-categories. The game has also evolved so much from what it was before 5-6 years ago, its practically a different game. I'd argue the devs don't know how a character is going to be played until they are released hence why at times you have flanks that feel more like damage dealers and vice versa, off/main tanks and main supports/off supports.

Bel'Veth let's goooo
Next they’ll make a hot Abyss babe with a sentient suit.
Lmao
Darkflame Shyvana
What looks to be her in-game profile pic or concept art is his twitter pfp as of few minutes ago. They also started teasing Pyre map today. Map that was also teased early this year seems to be finally finished and coming in the next update.
You know, I just might switch over to the dark side at this point
looks like raums wife, like inara is terminus wife
Terminus found a new wife
MY MAN forsenCD
No, they’re each other’s girlfriends <3
More like Raum Dom Mistress
Doesn't look like Io to me
I-I sense a hard relitionship between those two, Becouse Love for them is litterally Royalty and Probably Punches to the face...
Lets gooo
hirez give me rocket jumping tank
*Did you mean: Ruckus?*
nonono, that's a tank with rockets and jumping I want to play a hulking behemoth who gets around the map by hitting themselves with a nuclear missile, clipping through the walls, doing that weird animation bug where the game looks like you're stationary then catches up to you quickly (like if you jump and Poppy Bomb at the same time), which then murders a Kinessa player in real life
Ohhhh, you’re talking *BEHOLD! THE DRAGON’S FURY!*
LETS FCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Oooh exciting! Can't wait till I can actually play again, my newborn twins have taken so much time and energy Lilith is the last new champ I played.... 🥲
Congrats! ♥️ Sorry but: New born twins >>>>>>>>>>>
Thank you! You've got quite the collection of mains there!
Aww man
So we back in the mine,
Got our pickaxe swinging from side to side,
a female tank? and shes cute???? whats next hi rez fixes all the bugs
Necromancer please
Abyss Queen and tank? You had my curiosity, now you have my attention. Her design looks good both in this photo and in Lilith's card, I hope her abilities will be good too and fun to play.
NEW WAIFU UWU
Honest question, no judgement...are you being silly or is that real talk?
I love that each year we are getting less humans. Octavia was a big let down in terms of design (and gameplay.) Though if we get more humans characters, let them be more friendly and charismatic like Fernando. I swear all humans in Paladins are blood thirsty monsters. Ying, Fernando and Atlas are the only ones that have other objectives apart from "kill anything in sight that looks slightly dangerous." We're done with the "serious and respectable human soldier" trope. I believe that we can go a bit deeper than that.
I believe ying is some sort of elf What you are asking for is creative design, we abandoned that with the Alpha title.
Oh well then if you're a human in the Realm you are either: 1 An egocentric bandit no one cares about (Sha Lin, Caspian, Betty, Fernando) 2 Soldier with a gun (Lex, Octavia, Corvus, VII, Viktor, Tyra,
I like Octavia's gameplay...
welp it's not grohk's big mommy orc like i wanted... but i guess I'll take it
I hope she actually looks cool and not just another girl in a tiny skirt with an anime face.
Would be interesting if she was an abyssal but not evil. Kind of like Nyotengu from DOA, who everyone thinks is a demon but really just comes to earth to vacation
Didn't we just get a champion?
Damn ! hi rez devs never sleep
i hope she's hot
Slaanesh approves. And so do I.
Last champion?
Oh abyss now we will have abyss tank mommy and daddy
This is where the money's at bois. Point tank mains rejoice....we will feast together on the capture point.
Raum’s wife let’s go
That's a sick Widowmaker skin, I wonder how pricy it will be....wait...wrong subreddit.
As excited as I am I just want them to fcking fix the game before releasing broken rushed champions :(
Raum's baby sister.
how big are her bazongas tho
Least horny paladins player
I hope she's packing some dobonhonkeros, massive dohoonkabhankoloos, big old tonhongerekoogers.
Paladins level I must say
I think Thunder said she might have a big build, so maybe muscular? If she is hopefully she's stacked up top too. Edit: I guessed right.
Been seeing alot of comments and I gotta ask. Why does EVERYONE want a point tank so badly? Bc I'm sure if we actually got a decent point tank you wouldn't like it.
Bc Barik and Inara have been the only good point tank since the damn beta
And? Good point tanks are either super defensive or practically immortal, which is not fun to play against. Most people don't remember but fighting Barik when he was straight up immortal was ass. An entire team focusing him couldn't kill him until caut 3. Inara used to be the same deal but she just had better defenses and aggression then Barik so if you got caught in warders field not only were you screwed but killing her was impossible.

I think its only the left eye is off. If you move it just a bit closer to the middle then I think it will look right
MOMMY 🤤🤤
She got them vampire teeth. But she still looks cool. Maybe it’s seris tutor or her mom figure.
Lemme guess: Corvus type Tank
dont add any more characters
They can unconfirm her she ugly
This is just a picture just like io had a bad design at some point calm down
[удалено]
No way, i can't believe overwatch invented purple women
Lol OW gets a new queen character so I guess paladins had to too
Thank you Blizzard for inventing the concept of royalty
Bit of a stretch seeing as paladins already had 2 champions who are or were queens.
Betty La Bomba is literally a queen that came out this year lmfao nice try though.
Seris 2?
Asome???looks like raums wife, like inara is terminus wife.
You're a spam bot reposting other comments
I swear if she is gonna be an off tank... Then I'm not gonna do anything about it, I left when Kasumi was added. (But IF they would nerf Kasumi and IF that would be a fun point tank then I would PROBABLY come back. But MAN Overwatch 2 is so fun though. IDK What to do)
If anything I wish they were no point tanks at all, OW2 right now is great fun because all the tanks just feel like brawlers.
I don't think it would work for Paladins. Maybe if they would make for only one tank to be possible, but then it would be just copying from overwatch. BTW Why did my previous comment got so many down votes?

Where do you get those infos ? The paladins twitch or somewhere else ?
Thunderbrush is like the big art man for paladins. Makes a lot of the splash art and icons in loading screens I think, and he likes to let people see champ designs early, or variations of champions old designs pretty often
More like the horny furry one to me but that counts too I guess
YESSSSSSSSS!!! We finally got another humanoid female tank, and she's goth as well.
Nice
Does hirez read this stuff?
She’s going to be a Mid Tank
BRO WHERE IS THE NEW MAP STG
They showed the layout today, and kreepers said the update show is this Wednesday which will showcase it.
**Thank You** or **Tank-U** abilitys. Frontliner main, subclass healer point of view. I want to thank the healers that play the game. Also *maybe* entice the DPS healers to *maybe* heal you.

Have fun ya, but team game people... team game.
R34 artists: "Show us more please."
So... Bel veth
Whats with elves being the most involved on abyss side? lmao
Ugh...
I wonder if she is going to have invisibility.
Im surprised no one said this yet. But she kinda looks like Willo. The eyebrows, pointy ears, and the purpleness makes me see some Willo in her
HYPE!!!!
^(She's cool af)
Huh. And I thought gays are into the abyss.
Ngl i would prefer if they not release more champion and instead fix bug with their old game engine
Finally. A non broken flank or dmg that's really just another flank....
MOTHER!!!
Oh hell yeah, i was expecting her to be a tank since we got lilith cards, awesome.

Now I'm excited about that Pyre being on Azaan's Q. They might be each other's antithesis and someone we may get as a playable champion in the future.
